FBI Demands Logs From Radical Website

sunbird writes "The details are as yet unclear due to a gag order, but apparently the FBI is once again demanding IP logs from dissident webservers. The sysadmin for flag.blackened.net, best known for hosting infoshop.org and the Anarchist FAQ has responded to an FBI request for server logs. Although he cannot reveal the details of the request due to the gag order, the sysadmin has issued an informal press release discussing his reasons for turning over the information.

    Either it's the start of the fourth reich, tracking down all the remaining Jedi^Wfreethinkers and killing them, or it's a normal subpoena request for a normal investigation.

    I'll go ask Occam and get back to you.

    The best way to make the FBI happy is to slashdot the site. Great job! Now I have time to hide my cyanide in the subway rails!

    So all those sites dedicated to the mullet rocking, Oakley blade wearing (with the pink arms) lifted Toyota minitruck driving, Coors light drinking Americans from the 80's are in big trouble!

  4. Solution: Go out to the Forest by WillAffleckUW · · Score: 4, Funny

    chop down a tree you've lubricated with liquid waste products while standing next to it, and cut it into short two foot segments (or half-meter for the rest of the world).

    Get a poker, bend it so it spells IP, then start a fire with the sawdust and stick the poker in.

    Heat up the poker till it glows, using tree branches and some short tree segments and scrap. Then brand each tree segment with the symbol IP from the poker. Reheat as needed if the poker cools.

    Deliver tree segments, aka "Logs", that you can truthfully say are "IP Logs", to Secret Service.

    Mission Accomplished! You are now a terrorrorrorrist.

    If I hear "fire!", I look around for smoke and flame.

    Funny. When I hear "fire!", I pull the trigger.
